of a millimeter. The accuracy and the range
of the firing have also been entirely satisfac-
tory. some minor drawbacks in connection
with the gun carriages and the regulating

from the powerful recoil, have been removed,

The Providence Journal very properly says
Of the action of the President in regard to the
New York election: In New York one of his
cabinet officers was present prior to and dur
ing the election with the purpose of securing
through ill-disguised efforts that strength
for the Democratic State ticket which would
follow the recommendation of the chief ex-
ecutiye of the nation. That gratitude which
is lively sense of favors yet to come would
prompt increased energy and induce waver-
ing votes. The enormous patronage of the
President, openly or imp1iedly promised,
would suffice to carry the doubtful State.
Since the time of Jackson there has probably
been no such indecent interference in State
election by a President The Indignation it
will arouse will not be confined to those who
voted against Grover Cleveland in 1884
Either it must be rebuked at the polls or the
old theory of intelligence and virtue in polit-
ical life abandoned.
It costs something to carry on an election
in New York city. There were printed for
the election last Tuesday some 100000
ballots. There were deposited in the ballot
boxes not over 100000. There were print
ed, therefore, nearly 70 ballots for every citi-
zen who voted. In the work of receiving and
counting these ballots there were employed
and paid by the city 1854 persons, of whom
4,060 were inspectors of election and 1924
were poll clerks. It is a low estimate that
besides these men paid out of the city treas
ury there were for the five parties who had
tickets in the field at least As men employed
under pay in each election district, making
SO, $40 for the 912 election districts, a total
of 42, 224 voters out of 100000 who were un-
der pay in the city on the day of election,
and were selected for their work BY the party
managers. These AZ, 224 men received from
the city treasury. or from the party organi-
cations, not less than $500, 300 for their SER

Luther is the hero of the Reformation.
Without him and his powerful influence the
Reformation in itself as whole and in its
subordinate movements would have failed
of success. "Luther apart from the Refor-
nation would cease TO be Luther" His
whole heart and soul were in it and his great
personality cannot be separated from it, Mr..
Whitelook does not always follow the leading
of his leader. Religious thought to-day is
not exactly what it was in Luther's day, else
it would be certain that the reformer toiled
in vain. He tries to regard the person who
is the central figure of history from various
standpoints to see him in his whole life and
work, and to follow out to their results in
history the movements set on foot by him.
1t was vitalizing to the writer to spend SO
long time in contact with the soul of Lu-
ther, SO intensely imbued with faith in God,
and the volumes which he has produced can
not but reflect the glow which warmed the
heart of Luther and made him what he was.
We may say that it is great work portray
ing the life of a great man in its connection
with the Reformation and with religious his
tory. Published in two volumes by Cassell

DR.. Alexander MacKenzie's ''Some Things
Abroad" The author visited Ireland and
Scotland and then turned his face toward
Norway, one of the most interesting and
least visited countries of Europe, landing at
Bergen, where three or four days were spent
in "doing" that thriving and picturesque
city. After dwelling upon the country, its
manners and customs and people, DR.. Mac
Kenzie gives very clear account of the pres
ent political situation in Norway and the
causes which have led to it. After Norway
came Sweden and Denmark, and then Ger
many and Italy. From Italy the travellers
went to Turkey, and one of the most inter
esting portions of the book deals with Con-
stantinople. The author gives an interesting
account of Robert college, founded by an
American, Christopher Robert, through the
influence of its first president, Rev. Cyrus
Hamlin. Another institution described is
the girls school belonging to the Woman's
Board of Missions, the teachers in which are
young ladies from New England. The wri-
ter left New York in the summer of last year
in company with his son. He sees things by
new lights and has the gift of a fascinating
style, which makes his book doubly enjoya-

The recent elections have furnished the
| political prophets with some facts upon
| which to base their calculations for 1888.
| To the average Democrat the reelection of
Mr.. Cleveland seems almost assured. The
Mngwump sees only the utter destruction of
| Mr.. Blaine's prospects.
The New York Evening Post, which is al
| ways suffering from its chronic Blaineopho-
bia, is convinced that Mr.. Cleveland can now
beat Mr.. Blaine by a large majority, but
thinks the independent vote in the doubtful
States of Indiana, Connecticut and New Jer
sey can elect a frst-class Republican candi-
date To demonstrate this view of the prob
lem the Post stated editorially last Saturday;
Connecticut gave Mr.. Cleveland only 1876
plurality over Mr.. Blaine in 1884 and in 1886
elected y Republican Governor by 1898 plu-
rality. Connecticut rejected bad
Democratic candidate for Governor by indie
pendent votes in 1886 as she had, by the
same votes, rejected bad candidate for
President in 1884"
Unfortunately for the logic of the Post, ,one
Connecticut did not elect Republican Gov
ernor in 1886 by 1898. plurality. The Off
cial figures of that election gave for Cover
nor:
E. s. Cleveland, Dem. 58e1S
F. G. Lounsbury, Rep. Rep.............-......... 5000
Democratic plurality Observation-Disclosures. 1888
Mr.. Cleveland did not have majority OF
all the votes cast on account of the Labor and
Prohibition vote, and the Republican legisla-
ture elected the minority candidate, Mr.
Lounsbury. The Posts figures are right,
but the plurality was Democratic and not Re
publican.
The Connecticut election returns for the
last three general elections are instructive in
their application to the discussion of this ques-
tion and the effect Of Mugwump support or
opposition. The Democratic pluraiities of
this State for Governor in 1882 and 1886.
and for Presidential electors in 1884, were;
1oS 4lG1
1884 1,216
Mugwump opposition to Mr.. Blaine in 1884
reduced the Democratic plurality of 1882 by
1856, and the return of the Mugwump section
to the Republican party in 1886 increased the
Democratic plurality by 622. In the light Of
these results we'll may Connecticut Republic
cans exclaim! 'Save US from our Mugwunp
friendsl"
The denomination of Mr. Blaine may or
may not be wise. That question can be set
tied on other considerations. We have not

The quality of Hungarian cigars was re-
Gently discussed in the Hungarian parlia-
ment. Some of the members asserted that
they were SO bad that they were obliged to
buy their supplies in Austria. Whereupon
the Premier Tiaza arose and solennly declared
that in his opinion Hungarian cigars were
better than Austrian; adding that every time
he bought cigars in Vienna this opinion was
confirmed. One of the deputies then asked,
"Pardon the indiscretion, but how much do
you pay for these cigars" And Tiaza, whose
economic habits are we'll known, replied with
a smile, ''I make it point never to smoke a
cigar that costs less than four kruetzers"
(two cents)
1t appears from the result of tests made
at Christiana, Norway, that the De Bange
gun is likely to prove powerful rival of the
famous Krupp weapon. The former guns
have ealibre of 8.4 centimeters, and the
number of shots fired, amounting to 1000,
have not effected the smallest trace of exten-
